Don't know why, but I'm interested in web design -- fonts, colors, placement of content.... all that. Logos too. Here's one that caught my eye. Its in a category called "blur," though to me the design shows a lot more than that technique. I like its use of shading, particularly the high-lighting. And I like how it reveals more of itself as you continue to view it (at least that's my experience). I like particularly that the red shapes seem to be representational, but I can't say what they might represent. As you can see the image is from a site dedicated to the subject.

The word “trend” seems to raise the little hairs on the back of some designers’ necks. Everybody wants to be a you-know-what-setter; no one wants to acknowledge the aftermath. But as we march toward LogoLounge.com’s fifth anniversary, we’ve discovered that trends have become something impossible — and maybe unwise — to ignore.
